In the morning, cross the Mekong River to its right bank to see two small temples now abandoned to nature. Then, after a few minutes on a motor boat, discover a pottery village which, encouraged by the Department of Culture & Heritage, keeps this ancient craft industry alive. Many of the families in this village make their living through traditional pottery. Return to Luang Prabang about midday. In the afternoon, transfer to the airport and fly to Vientiane, where you’ll be met at the airport and taken to your hotel. You then have some hours in the evening to discover the sleepy Laotian capital on your own. Take a stroll along the Mekong and watch the locals enjoying their peaceful town at dusk. Dinner will be on your own at a restaurant of your choosing, before heading in for the night for a good night´s rest. Settha Palace Hotel
